TVL track in Senior High School is the most popular option to choose from in our Senior High School program. Here are some reasons why.
- Obviously, Employment
As the students finish a specific TVL strand, they will be equipped with skills in order for them to be employed as soon as they finish two years of Senior High School. Most of the skills offered are highly marketable outside the country with very high salary. This is why people are more into skills training now.
- Students are exposed to the industry at an early age
To be successful, start young. One of the curriculum features of the TVL is the work immersion program in which they learn and practice their skills in an actual work environment. Here, they will learn and experience not only the hardships but on how to interact with co-workers and clients as well.
- More opportunities to market their skills
Since they would be able to interact with industries, clients, and colleagues, they would also learn skills like entrepreneurship and more in which not only they would know how to sell, but also on how to value their efforts and skills correctly.
- An extra skills brought in college is an advantage.
Although not all can go to college, there are still some who would prefer higher education. Having the skills in college especially those related ones is a huge plus. It’s like having a good practice before starting college and impress them during class. Even if your college course is somehow different from your senior high, showing your cooking skills or dressmaking techniques would come in handy someday.
The TVL track is a viable option to get jobs faster. It has become a more affordable option since it is offered in public schools. TVL track teaches practical hands-on skills and comes with industry partnerships by its immersion program that will give students on-the-job experience. (Paid article)
